| Jan 4, 2011 at 14:04 | comment | added | xenoterracide | @andre well I'm not saying that's all bad either ;) just that I hate it when we have 5 mediocre different implementations of the same concept with no shared API, when we could have 1 movement that got it done. See Poppler vs libpurple, libmsn, kopete, etc. | |
| Jan 4, 2011 at 13:55 | comment | added | André Paramés | "In short we should all try to share as much code an API's as possible instead of creating a new library every time we want to do something." Personally, I think the distinction should be made. You can use the same API but have different libraries/implementations of it, and that's fine, because that allows integration without forcing uniformity. | |
